From the vicarage As I write, it’s a Sunday afternoon and I’m feeling slightly the worse for wear. No, I didn’t have a wild night last night - but I did have my first Covid vaccination yesterday. Aspirin got me through two services this morning, and I’m telling myself that short-term pain is worth the long-term gain – which I’m sure it is. It was in March of last year, during Lent, that the first lockdown began and everything suddenly changed. Mothering Sunday services didn’t happen; by Palm Sunday I was filming myself making paper palm crosses for others to try making at home; and the Easter Garden took shape on the vicarage driveway, hurriedly decorated with a tray of pansies from a supermarket. Most just shrivelled up in the spring sunshine, but a couple of them seemed to celebrate the hope and joy of Easter by not just surviving but blooming all the way into October. As I write, Lent is just about to begin. Forty days and nights, not just without cake, chocolate and other such things, but without things that usually make everyday life what it is. This Mothering Sunday will probably be another of those occasions when we would normally be with family and friends but may well end up sending flowers through the post and chatting on Skype instead. So here’s some hope and encouragement for Lent: think of those pansies - they wouldn’t have grown on the vicarage driveway had it not been for the pandemic. Perhaps in the same way, we’ll look back on this time in years to come and find that there are things that we’ve gained as well as lost – perhaps small things, like the pansies, easy to miss for the moment– but still growing, all the same.

WHAT IS

FAIRTRADE?

Fairtrade is a simple way each one of use can make a difference through our every day choices. It is about better prices, decent working conditions, local sustainability and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers in the developing world. Fairtrade aims to enable the poorest farmers and workers to improve their position and have more control over their lives.

• The Fairtrade mark means that: A minimum price is paid to Fairtrade producers covering their costs of production; • The producers receive an additional Fairtrade premium, an extra amount of money to invest in their communities on economic, social or environments projects; • Workers on farms also get rights under Fairtrade like decent wages and they are allowed to join unions; • The Producers in Fairtrade co-operative always get a democratic say in decisions – women included. • By supporting Fairtrade in your weekly shop, it benefits others considerably; and also demonstrates a better understanding of where our food (and other Fairtrade products) come from . Both Dover Deal have Fairtrade town status and it is very important that we continue to work with the Community to maintain this status ; our aim is to have a Fairtrade District, We have the support of both town councils and DDC.

As it is Fairtrade Fortnight From 27/2/21 to 7/3/21 our activities will include a virtual meeting with a speaker on 3 March 2021 – anyone interested in attending and /or wanting to know more about our Fairtrade groups please contact [email protected] .

Additionally we have donations of Fairtrade Footballs to make and if anyone has contact with youth groups who would be interested in receiving a couple, please get in contact.

REQUEST FOR NEW SALT BINS IN THE VILLAGE Further to our previous notification, the following response has been received from KCC Highways. "For the 2021 winter season there will be a review to determine the need to provide further salt bins across the county. An exercise will be carried out to identify how the salt bins are utilised and those that are seldom used may be removed and where needed moved to more suitable locations. In view of the review and the widespread availability of salt bins already in place, for the 2021 season no further salt bins will be placed. The existing salt bin stock is considered to be sufficient to meet the needs of local communities. With reference to your enquiry requesting a new salt bin for George Close, Capel-Le-Ferne. George Close is a private road & not KCC adopted Highway. Therefore this would be down to the developer to supply & maintain a salt bin for the new development.

Future Development in Capel Have Your Say.

Dover District Council are in the process of producing their second Local Plan. The stages of this process are: - • Consultation on draft Local Plan (Regulation 18): January 2020 – March 2020 (8 weeks) • Review and finalise Local Plan: April 2021 - October 2021 • Consultation on proposed submission version of the Local Plan (Regulation 19): November 2021 – December 2021 (minimum 6 weeks) • Submission of the Local Plan for Examination – February 2022 • Local Plan Examination – June 2022 • Adoption of Local Plan – February 2023 What is a Local Plan? Basically, Dover District Council is required to plan future development in the district from 2020 to 2040 Therefore, the Local Plan sets out to identify plots of land throughout the district that are suitable for development. Here in Capel, 16 plots of land were offered for development by local landowners during the evidence gathering stage. From the 16 plots, only 4 have been considered suitable for development by Dover District Council (highlighted with a green border on the map). Have Your Say. The first public consultation runs from the 20th January 2020 for 8 weeks. Dover District Council would like to hear your views. Capel Parish Council would also like to hear your views so that the Parish Council’s submission to Dover District Council can reflect the views of our Parishioners. To do this, please look at the attached flyer and have your say.

For your information. The first Local Plan took around 5year to develop and was adopted in 2015. Initially from around 16 plots in Capel, there were three plots of land that were finally approved for development Currently, the first plot, George Close (Formally Grasslands) is complete with 40 dwellings. The second plot on the junction of Capel Street and Winehouse Lane is under construction with 4 dwellings. The third plot in Capel Street has outline planning consent for 34 dwellings. Local Plan 2021 v4

The following has been extracted from Dover District Councils Local Plan Consultation Document: Non-Strategic Housing Allocations Policy 1

6.113 To deliver the Council's identified housing need a number of site allocations are proposed, in accordance with the housing growth strategy: Housing Allocations 6.114 In addition to the Strategic Housing Allocations set out above, the Council will also allocate non-strategic housing sites to deliver 3,821 new homes, to meet the housing target. 6.115 The proposed non-strategic housing allocations are informed by the sites identified in the Housing and Economic Land Availability Assessment (HELAA). Sites have been selected in accordance with the Council's preferred option for the distribution of housing growth (as set out above), based on their suitability, availability, and achievability. Where constraints have been identified on sites, it is considered that these can be mitigated and the policy sets out a number of key considerations for each site, that will need to be addressed when taking the site forward. 6.116 To support the delivery of the Local Plan the Council is working with key stakeholders to produce an Infrastructure Delivery Plan. This is an iterative document that sets out the infrastructure required to support the planned development set out within this Plan. As part of the Regulation 18 consultation on the draft Local Plan the Council will be engaging with infrastructure providers and other stakeholders, on site specific infrastructure requirements. These comments will be used to inform the Infrastructure Delivery Plan. The Infrastructure Delivery Plan will be published as part of the Regulation 19 consultation on the Local Plan. 6.117 The Council's proposed non-strategic housing site allocations are set out below, and identified on the policies map. These need to be considered in conjunction with the Strategic Housing Allocations set out above (see policies SP4 Whitfield Urban Expansion, SP5 North , SP6 South Aylesham and SP7 and Elvington). SA Policy 1 Housing Allocation The following sites, as defined on the policies map, are allocated for housing during the plan period up to 2040. Planning permission will be granted for the proposals that: a. Accord with the policies in the Local Plan; and b. Address the key development considerations for each site.

The phasing for development is based on site availability, identified constraints and progress towards gaining planning consent. Table 6.3 should be used in conjunction with the site map for Capel and may help you formulate your response.
